Reality Check: Why Fan Efforts Won't Help Supernatural's Budget

This is a first of a two or three part series of what I call âReality Check.â There are too many misconceptions out there about the way things work in this sorry business known as Television, and I feel compelled to set the record straight. For the first part, Iâll explain why no amount of fan activism will improve Supernaturalâs budget a great deal. TV, just like any other medium, is a business meant to make profit. When times are lean, costs get cut. Still, thereâs way more to this TV game than most understand.
